The Ostrin girls turned a collective 10 years and five weeks this weekend. Lila turned the big 0-3 on Saturday.Friday, Ronnie turned SEVEN (how is that possible?). She came home to find her very own big girl desk.Little Noe was 5 weeks old Friday, and she's very happy about that (no, it's not just gas)!

I'd like to introduce a beautiful new shop on etsy that one of my friends has recently opened. . . Jeweled Essentials.

Her work exudes zen! Sheela uses sterling silver and copper, along with natural gemstones and beautiful bezel set images that lend a pop of color. Her designs have an Indian influence, and feature a unique sanskrit-style font. Let her stamp your custom names and affirmations in this great stylized font!

So Ben definitely looks more boy-ish, but the girls are nearly identical, even to me!

Ronnie in her little lamb outfitBen wearing his football onesieLila sporting her rose colored blankie (NEVER without it!)And Noe, pink and perfect!I think if I didn't know their outfits, I couldn't figure out who is who! whom?

How lucky that Grandma is in charge of the sign at Tradition Bank (I always wondered what the Vice President's job was!). All of out little Ostrins got a formal welcome into the world. You may notice that Noe's doesn't quite match. We can thank hurricane Ike for that. After the hurricane destroyed the first sign, they went and got themselves a fancy sign - hours of programming fun for Grandma!

So we are all adjusting to life with a new baby. I am realizing that we have a lot of people in the house! This is what our living room looked like last night.That's Edwin on the computer, Ronnie on the trampoline, Ben and Lila on the see-saw, and little Noe in her swing.

Edwin thought it was a bit too chaotic, and moved the see-saw outside. . .
